Description

Travel from Thorsmork Valley back to Reykjavik on this one-way highland bus transfer, after hiking in the Thorsmork Nature Reserve.

You can board at either of the two stops in Thorsmork, Langidalur or Basar, and your ticket is valid at both. Langidalur is the start or end point of the Laugavegur Trail. Basar lies south of the Krossa River, with Eyjafjallajokull and Myrdalsjokull glaciers behind it, and gives access to the Fimmvorduhals Trail over to Skogar Village.

Thorsmork is known for its birch woods, deep valleys, and fast-flowing glacial rivers, with glaciers on three sides.

The bus follows highland roads with river crossings out of the valley, then stops at the N1 service station in Hvolsvollur and at Kjorbudin Supermarket in Hella on the way to Reykjavik.

In Reykjavik, you can get off at Laugardalur Campsite (Sundlaugavegur 32) or at City Hall (Vonarstraeti 4). The first bus arrives at about 6:00 p.m. and 6:15 p.m., and the later bus at about 9:30 p.m. and 9:45 p.m.

Reykjavik is the capital of Iceland and a good base for exploring the rest of the country, with landmarks such as Hallgrimskirkja Church and Harpa Concert Hall.
